Hi i was wondering how the msp owner likes the 2004 srt-4?? good , bad , ugly, awesome and explain why?? i debating in getting an srt-4 .
 
Mods just close this thread now save us all the headache of the argument thats going to happen. LOL jk. its a FAST car. i respect the power. Personally i prefer the MSP over it. but if you like the car, go for it. its all up to your opinion, not ours dude, its gonna mostly be negative anyway. But if its a car that you could see yourself driving, then go for it. But like i said, i would keep my speed over a new srt4 in MY OWN OPINION, just cause they dont appeal to me too much.
 
^pretty much what he said

go test drive them and decide !

but i'll defintely pick my spicy msp over any srt4
 
yea if you want something fast with decent handling then you might like the SRT-4 (that is if you are ok with ugly ass dodge vehicles)
 
the car kinda makes me angry... not sure why... Prob the look of it and the lack of rear power windows. The FMIC is badass tho

Yea me too, everytime i look at it...i think to myself, "why would anyone EVER want to drive a neon, regardless of it being turbo charged or not."
 
I usually keep my mouth shut about things like this but....

HOW THE HELL IS THIS MAZDASPEED PROTEGE RELATED!

This subforum has become the dam general forum, its bs, why dont we have a general forum?

Disclamer: Just got home from 7hour roadtrip, little cranky.
 
SRT-4 h4s t3h W1N IMO...If I could have afforded one i would have bought one...

Im sick of hearing about interior qualitites, if u wanted a hot interior you shoulda bought an audi.
Handling can be damn close to that of an MSP for under 1K...with the MSP you already got the handling, but you arent gonna get SRT-4 speed for 1K.
The looks department is VERY subjective but IMO it looks HAWT. i love the front, the rear is great, but I would trade spoilers for an SXT one...
And of course everyones favorite, the exhaust...best exhaust ona 4banger(modified or stock) ive evAr heard :D
 
IMO the MSP is a nicer all around car. Does everything pretty dam good. SRT has a much more powerful motor. Poor quality. Rent a car interior. Power isn't everything. Power doesn't get ya around the corner faster. (yippy)
 
You know what? With about 2K I can get an MSP to go as fast as an SRT, so what's your point?

And Dodge warranteing their cars? Walk into a Dodge dealership with anything you could have done to an MSP to void the warranty and see how fast they laugh at you and deny your warranty work. ALL DEALERSHIPS WILL VOID WARRANTY WORK IF YOU **** WITH YOUR s***. PERIOD. Why is this so hard to understand?

Almost tho, unichip + cs exhaust, around 1300$...should be within 10hp of a srt-4, will it keep up? dono, you also void your warr this way...

srt is a great car, but not my flava.
 
Theres been a carp load of threads on SRT-4 vs MSP...everythign from power, performance to cheapness.

Good cars but as I said in all those threads both cars are on seperate side of the wall. One focuses on balance and handeling (MSP) the other on power (SRT-4). Right now im leaning twords SRT-4 cuz of product support and warrenty. Other then that I love my MSP.

I see alot of SRT-4 they are gonna be the me2 cars within a few years.

I dunno...Ive heard so many stories of engine warranties not being honored in Mazdas because the owner put an axleback on...and brake failures blamed on the audio system, etc etc(i made those examples up, but you guys know what I mean)....

yet there are plenty of SRTs boosting over 20psi on MBCs, and at least two of them who blew up their trannies got new ones under warranty...

Read up, pay attention and realize that mazda doesnt will try to void warranties whenever they can on even stock cars, while dodge is pushing the aftermarket and willing to fully warranty modded versions of their econobox on crack.

not trying to start a flame war here boys, just stating the facts :D

I would be willing to bet that those SRT-4 owners who blew their trannies probably took off their MBC's before getting work done....unless they are retards.
